I have to create app which has requirement to integrate calculator. I want to know that is there any api which will show a calculator. or i have to create the calculator?
I searched on google but it was showing me calculator application.
Thanks in advance
NO, You have create the calculator and integrate it with application
I don't believe there is any particular API for interacting with the built-in calculator.
You are also unable to launch other applications from within your application, unless you are using URL Schemes (here is a long list of supported schemes), so you will need to create your own calculator.
Here is a similar question: Launch an app from within another (iPhone)

There are many ways to do it. I advice you to read carefully and choose the best way to do it.
Here are some links to read about it:
Making Salesforce and PayPal Work Together
SDK Project
Good Documentation and code
Salesforce provides mobiles SDK for iPhone, Android & hybrid platforms.
This SDK has samples on how to start with. There are lot of documentations available.
Basically the SDK helps to authenticate with Salesforce using oAuth, communicating with the objects using RestKit.
Refer the following URLs to start with..
Download the mobile SDK from the following URL.

I'm learning iOS programming. I was wondering if there is any way to show the icons of all the running apps in the phone. I know how to get a list of apps that are running currently, but is it possible to access their icons?
If not, what is the best way to do this? Crawl the appstore for icons and store it in the app?
As far as I know there is no API for getting the current running apps in iOS (but there is something like this for Android).
If you want to show only the currently running app icons, how will crawling appstore help?
If you cannot do it directly through some API trickery, how about a sideways workaround? If you know the names of the apps that are running, you could build a process that grabs the app icons through the iTunes Store Search API (using NSData's initWithContentsOfURL: method (docs), or with NSURLConnection and its delegates).
It might be a bit convoluted, but is probably the most straightforward way of getting the icon of any app that might be running.
I have tried to grab app icons using the API and I make it!
Take an example of app yelp, the premise is you get the buddleid of this app, which you can refer to Finding list of installed apps on iphone
And https://itunes.apple.com/lookup?bundleId=com.yelp.yelpiphone
helps to get the information in the form of json. Use the value for key "artworkUrl60" to get the icon of yelp
anytutorial to use good reader application in iphone sdk?
can I use Good reader application in my Iphone APplication?
To launch another application you have to find out if they have published a protocol to use and then 'open' that URL. See example, but not sure if GoodReader has published a protocol or how to find out if they have. You could always contact the developer directly.
You can't access another applications Sandbox or start another application via code, otherwise Apple will reject the app. I stand corrected to the answer about URL schemes to launch another app. You learn something new everyday.
You [can also] build the PDF functionality into your own app (i.e. use a UIWebView to do that for you).
I have an idea to use the apps on my iphone as a list for a different way to launch the program. But I have no idea if I can see the apps in something I can display? Is this possible? If it is possible, can I launch the listed app from my app? What do I need to access to get this done?
There is no way using the official SDK to enumerate the list of applications the user has installed.
Unofficially, with a jailbroken phone you can check the contents of the applications folder.
It is true there is no specific way to do this with the normal SDK. However if specific apps you had used URL schemes you can invoke them programatically. Google maps, mail, safari, sms have it. Any application can choose to implement their own custom one. This obviously doesn't help with any random app but if you have specific apps your targeting you might be able to integrate that way.
